Valspar

Cube Farm

M349

Cube Farm is a light gray with a blue-violet shadow. The blue shadow matters. Cube Farm feels office-clean, but not sterile.

Cube Farm works in workrooms, corridors, and bedrooms with warm floors. Good companions include wood, charcoal, or creamy white trim to keep the coolness balanced. Under bluish LEDs, it may look colder than intended. Let the ceiling color sit beside Cube Farm before painting.

Cube Farm in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
